pretty lucky to get ironfoe, i've solo'd brd a number of times trying to get it.
It's far too slow for an offhand, and so is your other offhand. either buy a hanzo sword or green dimensional blade off the AH for your offhand.
Another option for combat lvling is Combat nospec.

The idea is: Use the best mainhand you can, sword, fist or mace. And also use the best offhand you can, as you go thru the outlands this will often be a dagger.

Well that doesn't really have anything to do with the idea behind combat nospec. but regardless, I'm not sure if the OP is alliance or horde, because that's an option for only alliance.

Well i would say try out the mace spec i leveled for a while as one and loved it, the only drawback is there are very few maces for rogues. But you will find the stun does proc alot and more then one time it saved me.

How long will the Hanzo sword last me do you think? There is one on the AH but I'm kinda cheap and don't want to spend the gold on something I'll replace quickly.
Would the combat nospec hurt my DPS much?
hanzo sword should last you to 58 if you're combat nospec, there is a dagger offhand in one of the first quests in hellfire.
combat nospec loses weapon spec but you still have the talent points for other talents, it doesn't effect dps greatly. and is often better because you're not using inferior weapons just because of weapon type, I can't tell you how many people I see use a sword because it's a sword, even if it's a piece of garbage.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I roll with a resto druid like 95% of the time while questing and we dungeon with a pre-made of 5 guys. I don't PUG alot so many of the good instance drops will be available to me as I level. I don't use reposte much since I get healed so losing that while leveling won't make me cry too much. I just don't want the DPS to suffer.
if most of your lvling is within instances then riposte is not worth it, if it is outside instances then riposte is worth it.

and the sword from ramps
that would be a great setup as combat no spec now that you're 58. pretty sure that would be the best setup even as combat swords too. some people use the 2.1 speed sword from honor hold, but .7 speed difference is going to be detrimental for your dps.

resell it, it's not worth it after you've hit outlands. Grats on your longblade though! I ran ramparts about 14 times trying to get that thing cause I hit outlands with perdition's blade and leveling daggers just isn't as fast.
